rConfig 3.9.5 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to traverse directories on the system. An attacker could send a crafted request to the ajaxGetFileByPath.php script containing hexadecimal encoded "dot dot" sequences (%2f..%2f) in the path parameter to view arbitrary files on the system.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
